Tywais Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Post removed with misinformation. Note this request is for O Rhesus negative (O-) blood donation which is very rare among Asians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vogie Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Where are these red cross places, the last time I offered my blood to an hospital I was told at 65 I was too old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun Paul Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 This is the problem here they put an age limit on donors and if you are ahealthy 65 or more old person they do not want your blood, those of us who are O Neg do worry, as the Thais seem UNABLE to get hold of the fact that a 6- 80 yr old foreigner is probably healthier than a 50 yr old Thai but they refuse to change. Hope the recipient is OK and we should balme the Thais for being in the 19th century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lopchan Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm O neg in Nakhon Ratchasima is there a way of getting the blood to Craig from here? Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lopchan Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Update; I just called Nut. She said they have 2 units so far and isn't sure how many they will need. She thinks distance is going to be an issue for getting the blood to her husband. I'm trying to find out if the Red cross have an emergency transport service for donated blood like they do in some countries. Will update as info comes back to me. Meanwhile if anyone is closer to Chonburi and has O Neg please call her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgrahmm Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Any active Chonburi FB group → or several will get a much larger response and "echo/ripple" effect.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoDinosaw Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm O negative in Hua Hin, but 70 years old and with probable history of malaria in Nigeria many years ago. When I lived in Chiang Mai before that in the early 1970s, I was on an list of universal donors - there were 2 of us ! Can't remember which organisation held the list. I was never called to donate. Guess nobody wants my blood now ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfx Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Same problem for me re distance. I'm O Neg but in Hua Hin. I have given blood before at HH Hospital but that was for a local expat. Happy to donate if they can transport it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Lopchan has just posted to her family members in Chonburi so maybe word will get out among the locals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfaroukh Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I think O+ can give blood to anyone but can only get from O+. So make sure. If O+ can also give blood to O- . If possible it make it much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
